WYSIWYG Web Builder 18.3 update

Post by Pablo »

It's summertime! Time for another major update!
WYSIWYG Web Builder 18.3 fixes known problems, adds new features and includes other improvements.

What's new?

- New feature: Added the ability to use AVIF images.

More information about AVIF:
https://www.freecodecamp.org/news/how-to-use-avif-images-on-your-website/

To be able to use AVIF in WWB, your system needs a "AVIF WIC codec". Basically, all you will have to do is install a (third party) codec and WWB will automatically support AVIF.
For example, the Microsoft AV1 AVIF codec, available for free in the Windows Store:
https://apps.microsoft.com/store/detail/av1-video-extension/9MVZQVXJBQ9V

Note: WWB will render a place holder, if the codec is not installed.
